Submissions
Regrets: We are currently NOT taking new submissions.
(Last updated: 20 August 2025)What are we usually looking for?
"...couldn't put it down..." - "...I laughed so loud my neighbour came knocking..." - "... this made me laugh and cry and feel with the characters..." - "...edge-of-seat stuff..." - "...they feel like friends..." - "...story haunted me long after I finished reading it..."
So, our emphasis is on Story. And on characters. And on fast-paced, deep impact, moving stuff. Stories that entangle the reader and won't let go.
Also, AI: While AI is our friend (a really handy toolkit when directed by a human brain), we will NOT accept AI-generated content. Tbh, nor will any self-respecting publisher. There's enough pointless filler out there without needing help from AI to generate more.
(Apologies if you are actually a sentient AI. If you can prove your sentience to us, we'll rethink our approach. Nod to Harley, first CRT PC who grew a consciousness.)
Oh, and... if you (person, not AI) have instead written a textbook on Orthopthology or chocolate chip cookies, please feel free to submit this too. With a motivation why you wrote it.
Submit your manuscript by sending an email to submissions@pkaboo.net. (Copy-paste this address into your email address line.)

Must-Do: Professionally edit your manuscript for grammar, style, flow, accuracy, and plot holes before submission.
PLEASE NOTE: We don't accept unedited manuscripts. And we'll edit again, as all publishers do.
Disclaimer: Pre-editing improves quality and publication chances but doesn't guarantee acceptance.
Cover graphic: Submit a high-quality, marketable cover graphic, or we'll design one, taking your preferences into consideration.
Your personal details and manuscript are secure. See our privacy policy.
